The best brush for making tiny details. You can get less expensive brushes that might work a couple of times as well but this one just keeps on working. In the long run I spend less and get better results with this brush. Also you will find that even for super small details the number one and two work because the point is so crisp.

Wonderful point, holds a great deal of pigment, consistently performs exceptionally wet on wet, wet on dry, dry brush, cleans quickly and responds immediately to pressure. VERY pleased with this purchase.

I've used my pointed round on one painting so far. It's very soft compared to Blick sables. It was shipped with very protective packaging. There are a couple of wonky hairs already, though, and I've taken good care of it.

This brush is my favorite....and I have lots of brushed. The point is fine and even a bigger brush can get a small line. It holds a good amount of paint. I couldn't get the series 7 for a long time so getting this set was delightful.

After reading time and time again comments by artists recommending sable brushes, I finally made the leap. Yes, there is a huge difference in applying watercolor with a sable brush compared to a synthetic. It is a big investment and I am so glad I made it. The brush is amazing.

Listen, I've painted miniatures (toy soldiers, basically) for more than a decade and I've used a lot of brushes along the way. I had always heard about W&N Series 7s but didn't believe the hype. Believe it - these brushes are amazing!

Since I glaze paint more often than not, I'm used to getting the paint around where I want it but not quite there. With these brushes, the paint is getting where it needs to go every time. When you get one (or, hopefully, more) you'll see for yourself that they will always hold a tip and that you'll have much better control of your paint versus other brushes.
